Alright, so I'm playing as the hippus and he is playing as the calabim. Its a two/three continent map and he started gaining a foothold on mine by taking some of the Sidar cities that are on a little peninsula connected by a small land bridge to the rest of the continent. When I showed up with a large contingent of mounted mercenaries and took his relatively undefended cities and pushed him back down to one, Celo.
From there he fortified and began to push me back and has a large force of vampires and ashen/veil and calabim heroes with a large economy and strong research.
While I on the other hand have a weaker economy and am building wealth to buy 4 mounted mercenaries every turn.
I'm thinking of pullin back to the land bridge city and pillaging all the roads that face the peninsula and keeping a small 10 man force in it to bait him into taking the city with spectres/vampires while holding the rest of my forces out of sight and with road access. Hopefully by then my 2 mages with destroy undead will have gotten there in time to move in after he takes the city and with backup to use the spell on his vampire/undead hero stack to damage it enough for the rest of my cavalry to wipe em out.
I'll post my save game and hopefully people will validate me on this, or at least give me some pointers on my econ/building wealth policy for now.
